Summertime and the living is easy!

Welcome back to my awesome tribe of brain explorers!

Speaking of exploring, I had an experience recently that reminded me of our brain that I am excited to share with you today.

Confession time…. I recently snuck away from you amazing listeners and I took a vacation.

My husband and I took an overseas trip for 2 weeks and it was fantastic.

But it did not start out fantastic unfortunately.

We had a series of unfortunate events when trying to get to our first destination.

All the horror stories of international travel that get lambasted in the movies?

Yep- you guessed it. Happened to us.

Flights super delayed? Yep.

Crazy Karen’s causing a scene on the plane? Yep.

Changing planes when we were already part way down the runway?

If you said yes, you would be right.

So, what does this all have to do with the brain?

Well, I will give you a hint, the plane had sensors that were going haywire…

Tune in to hear the whole crazy story on today’s episode!

Join me as we dive into:

• Trying to go with the flow on a crazy flight.
• All the different ways people react in a high, anxiety situation.
• What do out of control plane sensors have to do with our brains?

I can’t believe it!

Do you realize what we did together?

We have made it to 100 episodes!

I know, I know, “One Hundred Episodes” feels like an unreal number but it’s true.

We have been through thick and thin on this podcast for almost 2 years so today I want to celebrate our milestone by talking about milestones.

When this whole thing got going, I just had a dream.

I knew that I wanted to help more people but I have finite time in the day.

I wanted to scale up my reach and ramp up the number of people that I helped without sacrificing my family life balance along the way.

And so, I talked with my support team and we realized that launching a podcast as a source of free help for those around me seemed like a winner of an idea.

Now here we are, 2 years later with 100 episodes under our belts and thousands of episodes downloaded and listened to.

It’s quite remarkable what we have done together and I TRULY do mean together with you, my listeners.

There were certainly days where I was tired and I didn’t want to record a podcast but hearing the feedback from people saying how they found this or that episode helpful or insightful truly is a motivating force.

So, celebrate your milestones my fantastic people.

Lean in to your accomplishments.

The world works so hard to make you feel and play so small but not today-today I want you to really think about everything that you have produced and accomplished in your journey through life!

Join me for a celebration!

• The dream that made this podcast a reality.
• The importance of recognizing and celebrating your milestones.
• How we can make this community grow even more.

Hello my amazing listeners!

I have recently returned from a trip abroad and while I was gone, there were a number of storms in my home region which produced severe winds and even tornados.

And that’s what I want to talk about today- tornados of thoughts if you will.

See many clients have been coming to me lately talking about how when their thoughts get to spiraling, it seems really difficult to get them to stop.

This feeling of endless thoughts swirling in our brains can quickly lead to anxiety or even panic attacks in some.

And for many, I find this is un-ending storm of thoughts frequently is a key cause of their burnout and overwhelm.

So, what do we do about our spiraling thoughts?

Well, there are different ways to approach it but today I want to focus on “Mindfulness.”

Mindfulness is a specific type of meditation and, before you say “But Julie! I don’t know how to meditate,” just know that it’s not necessarily the sit down, close your eyes and breathe deep for 10 minutes type of meditation.

Mindfulness is the idea of getting your way to focus back down to a single thought at a time to try to quiet those spiraling thoughts.

This episode I am going to teach you some basic mindfulness techniques which should help you start to tame those wild, endless thoughts!

Join me to discuss:

• The dangers of spiraling, stormy thoughts.
• How mindfulness can help you tame your storming brain.
• My 5 sense's technique to help you on your mindfulness journey.
